| AIDS Legal Referral Panel -- Oakland Office |
 |
 |
| |
| Other Information: |
The AIDS Legal Referral Panel (ALRP) is the only institution in the San Francisco Bay Area whose entire mission is dedicated to providing free and low-cost legal assistance and education on virtually any civil matter to persons living with HIV/AIDS. This includes such widely disparate areas as housing, employment, insurance, confidentiality matters, family law, credit, government benefits or public accommodations, to name just a few. This is accomplished through either direct representation of clients by one of ALRP's five attorneys or by careful placement of clients with one of ALRP's 600 panel attorneys.
Our Outreach Attorney is at the Oakland Office, located at the AIDS Project of the East Bay, two days a week: Monday and Wednesday. The Oakland Office generally offers the same services as the San Francisco Office, but if you have specialized needs, you may be referred to an attorney at the San Francisco Office. |
